Hey dolls! In my latest Mommy Blog I talk all about how Scott and I discipline Mason. We haven’t gotten to a place where we feel comfortable giving him time-outs yet, I find it best to sit down and talk to Mason, and so far it’s working, but you never know what will happen in the future. As long as Scott and I are on the same page with regards to the way we discipline and teach Mason lessons, that’s what is most important.
Watch my latest Mommy Blog here.
Kourt, First, I would highly rec this book called “Hold On To Your Kids” by Gordon Neufeld. I think it may really resonate with your parenting style and also help with some tips now that Mason is getting to be not such a baby:( Also, kuddos to you for your healthy family ways (breastfeeding, co-sleeping etc) You have made me proud.
One thing I always think about when Im reaching my limit is “someone here may need a time out but its probably me”…why would we separate our children from us (leave them alone on a time out) when they need us the most.
Kindly,
Tara Brooke
Doula. Fan and Mama

I don’t believe in spanking at Mason’s age but I do believe in spanking a child once they are in school. Not with a belt but like a correction on the hand. Cudos to you though. Every parent is different. Plus I don’t have kids but I’ll probably raise them with little to no spanking.
I have a 2 year old who will be 3 in July. Does just communicating with them work at that age? I don’t like doing spankings with my son but sometimes i have. Any advice?
Hi Kourtney, I was just wondering if you’d like some help with your couponing?? Or was that scripted for the show?? I have tons of coupon websites that share fabulous freebies & lovely printable coupons. I coupon because I have too. It’s how i feed my kids. I’m not blessed like you. I watched the one episode where khloe helped that homless man & that really got to me. I hope that wasn’t scripted because it’s nice to know that wealthy people do care. You’re very lucky to have the type of family that you have & to have the type of lifestyle you have. I know they say life is what you make it but i’m disabled because i have the worst possible back you can ever imagine so i’m stuck at home & i cant go to my family for help because they’re extremely selfish! Anytime I accomplish something & do good in life they find a way to bring me down & make me feel like shit because they dont want me to be better than them & to have a mom who supports who no matter what you do is pretty amazing. I have a sister but we’re not close like you guys. I wish i had that. Anyway, if you’d like some couponing tips, i’d be happy to help
Hey Kourtney First I want to tell you that I definitely admire how you discipline Mason. I am 30 with 3 kids. My oldest son is almost 10 and my daughter is almost 7 and my baby Jackson just turned 2 on Dec 4. I have never spanked any of them. I learned from my mother who would spank us when we misbehaved and I remember never wanting to do that to my own kids. With my oldest who has been my easiest child, all I would do was speak to him and taught him about the consequences of his action whether he hit a child or threw something, when we spoke to him he would never do it again. With my daughter she is pretty simple just looooves to shop, drives me nuts. And my 2 year old is very active he never fights with anyone but he constantly has me on my toes because he enjoys jumping and flipping all around our house. But your advice is pretty good for first time parents who have a hard time disciplining their children.
Hola Kourtney well you are very blessed with your little boy and the baby that’s on the way congrats you are doing amazing job. Well I have two boys and one babygirl its been different with all of them on discipline but the only thing I can say is I’m just so blessed with my kids
You are doing a good job. What I do is read books on discipline your kids. I feel that everyone is different and is entitle to how you want your kids. And a lot of people tell you good things and bad. But only your heart will tell you how and what to do. Because what if you do something that someone suggected and its not right for your household. Thats why I do what my heart tells me. We are moms we know what we want for our babies.
Courtney you are doing the right thing, that is how I raised my boys that are 43 and 39 and they got in no trouble and they were not afraid to talk to us. I also gave them choices what to do good or bad and they always went the good way, I gave them the respect as little ones and never had to give time outs . they are educated and married with children and real family guys. If parents would take a little time after work and play and talk to there kids, then that is all the attention kids really want. you and Scott are good parents and people.
Omg it’s so funny how I can relate to u. I have a baby boy two years old named LANDEN just two months older than Mason and I recently had a baby girl named LIVELEE. I’m not married but have been with my boyfriend for a long time. My boyfriend is just like Scott when it comes to drinking and pretty much everything else. He used to get angry and dumb and I would tell him the same thing, that I cant be putting my kids in that situation, I ok with casual drinking I love to drink my self, but its the over drinking am against. He s doing allot better now. Well I just wanted to tell u that everything u do I admire, and now that your prego s am so trilled and happy for u. I hope u have a precious lil girl so you can doll up. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re great at it. Luv Ya -Juels-

Hey Kourt! I think you are handling motherhood wonderfully!
I wish there were a way I could invite you to a “Secret” group we have on FB. You’d love it I’m sure. You seem a little bit “hippie” like us. We are almost all into the gentle or positive parenting, all natural products, foods, etc. Most of the moms on there are from CA. Best of all, we are all there to support and encourage each other on this journey called life. I was so pleased to see the episodes where it showed that you like that kind of hippie stuff! People think we are crazy, but we are just trying to get back to the basics, the way things were intended to be. I know it’s a long shot, but you can contact me if you are interested. Hope you are having a fabulous week!
Hi Kourtney
I am a big fan and also like your mommy blog info. We also co-sleep, still breastfeed and prepare natural organic foods for our now 21m old daughter. I am interested in how you got Mason to stop nursing…our daughter still nurses at night. And how did you get him to move in to his own bed. We don’t CIO. Also, I would love more information about your personal nutrition choices. What books, gurus, etc. do you follow if any?
Thanks and best wishes!
Hi Kourt,
I think u are absolutly rite about giving ur kids respect. It is very important to comunicate with them. Children learn from example and i think ur doing a great job. Mason looks very smart and his little personality makes me laugh. sooo cute! Congratulations and best wishes!
Hi Kourtney,
I was previous able to view your frequent mommy blogs however it’s unavailable to Australian viewers. Please help! x
Your doing Great!
My son and I still co-sleep. He is older now. He loves sleeping with Daddy, but daddy cannot fall asleep with him in the same bed. Our son is not such a quiet sleeper. I tell his father that you only have them fir so long when they are little or let’s say young enough to still sleep with and cuddle with, you should take advantage. My son son has been breast fed forever and co-sleeps and I even loved to carry him until he was to heavy to do it anymore. He is very much independent and his male-ness pours out of him – even with the bonding. Most of the boys in school do not want hugs and kisses from their parents – but my son is the opposite – we drop him off every morning to school – and when he walks down the hall – he turns and waves and does this until he cannot see us and goes up the steps- he is not a pushover or sensitive to growing up with aggressive boy behavior he takes things like a little man and is the first one to not let a bully get to him and as well the first one to punch a bully to put a end to something if they do something consistently. He listens to his father and I and he knows how to make his own decisions. He does his homework first thing after school and does some work that mommy gives him to stay ahead and then he knows how to use his imagination. I live in Westchester NY and wanted to tell you that- yes it is controversial – the subject of how long you do anything that spells – To close to your child – but I am here to tell you – do what you feel in your spirit and heart – if you change that – you will not be happy. To be truly happy – you need to establish your own sense of self worth and confidence in who you are and what you do and the message it sends to your own soul – once you own that- you do not have to worry about what other people feel and what is controversial. Enjoy your children to whatever extent you feel the need to. They can only be cuddled and cooed for so many years then they are going to be out more exploring the world instead of cuddling with you. Let me let you in on something – my son likes it when he just wakes up and hugs me and I’ll create song to sing to him about saying Good morning and I love you- now tell me how long you can really do this for. One day we will have to let go – because they will give their cue – I will hang in there til that very moment. Thank you!
Hi Kourtney, I love your show by the way! I have to agree with you on the spanking, I absolutely don’t agree with it and I feel that it does hurt the child. I believe it teaches them to handle things aggressively and not in a calm manner. I know from experience because when growing up I was brought up in that type of environment and I have to say I had to learn to handle things in a different manner and it wasn’t easy because I was lead by example, but I had to change it within myself and see for myself that the only thing that it taught me was not being able to cope with different issues. Children have to be guided in a positive way and they look up to us
They should be lead with confidence and not with fear. I am happy for you and your new baby on the way…I have four kids myself and they mean the world to me:)
Love your comment Nina. Couldn’t agree more with the spanking part and leading your child without fear and anger!! Have a great day : )
HI Kourntey
You are a FAB mom! Mason seems like such a GREAT kid! Love you and your fam! Tote agree with giving our toddlers choices and redirecting their behavior to something positive.
I was wondering what your herb regimen is. I have a 3 and 1/2 year old and am undergoing cancer treatments and want to be uber healthy like you are when I’m done. I’m interested in your teas, herbs, supplements, cleanses, and such that have been topics on the most recent shows and that I’ve read about in magazines. You should write a book about it!
hi kourtney…
… thank u
i have a baby girl 7 months old…and i’m interested in watching u videos but im from greece and i cant see the video because are not availlable to greece…please fix that
Hi,
If you’re not from the states and cannot view this video maybe try licking this http://uk.eonline.com/news/new_web_series_kourtney_kardashians/276565
Hi Kourt! I’m from Canada and I was able to see your very first Mommy Blog and now they are not available. They say the uploader is not available in my country…..I love you and want to see your blogs please can you make it so we can see your videos….. Your very inspiring and insightful! Love you! Andrea (Toronto, Ontario)
wOW! I wish my dad would have done it your way, daarling. He would beat my ass so bad, the neighbors thought I was gonna grow up and perform as a professional wrestler, I would be so bloody. I learned the hard way; never talk back AT your parents. Toodle-luuuu, daaaaaaaaaarling
Ive seen the show I just hope he doesnt grow up to be as ungrateful and spoiled as most of the family is seen to be. There are so many families out here who if they were blessed with a 1/3 of what you all were they’d be happy. sometimes idk what this world has come too I think Khloe is the best out of all the family she seems to be the only one with common sense.
I COULDN’T AGREE MORE with your parenting style, Kourtney!!!!! I’m 100% COMPLETELY AGAINST SPANKINGS. Everything you said is so smart. I believe that communication, not getting angry, and how you explain to him WHY not to do something is extremely important. Kids won’t know or understand why doing something is wrong unless you have communication. I believe that spankings is abuse, and awful. It will put hate in your childs heart. LOVE YOUR PARENTING STYLE, KOURTNEY!! xxo Emily
i do give time outs with my daughter and they work luckily they dont happen often as i HATE giving them she does really well with them (so far) i dont agree with spanking children thats just my feelings i was never smacked as a child so i wont do it to my children but i dont judge those that do its their children at the end of the day
